Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = 8
x = 11.3
option 2
Step-by-step explanation:
We can recognize this right triangle as a special triangle, a 45° - 45° - 90° triangle more specifically. This triangle would be isosceles because the two base angles are both 45°. Since the triangle is isosceles, we can say that the legs are congruent, so y = 8. In a 45° - 45° - 90° triangle, the hypotenuse is √2 times the legs. To find x, we can set up the equation:
8 * √2 =x
x = 8√2 or about 11.3
If the pond were a rectangle, then:
length=15 m
width=6 m
We would have to calculate the perimeter of this rectangle.
Perimeter of a rectangle=2(length)+2(width)
Perimeter of this rectangle=2(15 m)+2(6 m)=30 m+12 m=42 m
We need 42 m and I only have 40 m, therefore, it would not be enough for fencing the pond.
Take the square root of both sides to solve and you get a= 0.4,-0.4
